Yes that's a typo (the only time I didn't do a copy/paste). The sequence is:
1. Make sure no pgAdmin4 processes are running. 2. Make sure no python processes are running. 3. Launch pgAdmin4 from Applications menu. 4. pgAdmin4 splash appears - the nice blue one. 5. The Fatal Error window appears with text below with pgAdmin4.py 6. Note that a process is running called pgAdmin4 and showing a command of: /usr/pgAdmin4-v1/runtime/pgAdmin4. This aligns with what is coded into /usr/share/applications/pgAdmin4-v1.desktop. This is stock from the install. 7. Note that no python process is running. (as one would expect given the error message). 8. Then I hit the OK button in the Fatal Error window. 9. It all goes away, including the process in step 6 above. 10. When this happens an abrt-hook-ccpp log is generated, which I can send if it will help. 11. I confirm that there is no prompt for paths. My sincere apologies for the typo below; it is unhelpful to add errors into debug data. Anyway, I am at your service for further debug attempts.
